Welcome to vhf, and thank you very much for your interest in our range of tools. This new catalogue issue shows our updated range of standard and special tools for the years 2008 and 2009. Again, we are very pleased by the development of the vhf tool sector during the validity period of the last catalogue. For instance, the sales volume of our popular universal single tooth cutter Varius has increased by more than 40% from 2005 to 2006. In order to fully meet the increased demand, we have increased our workforce and invested considerably in our machinery. At the same time, we took this opportunity for a spin-off of an independent company, vhf tools GmbH, as a pure production site for vhf tools. Thus the vhf group has grown to four members in the meantime. However, please still contact vhf camfacture AG for all questions and orders. This new foundation comes along with good news for you: the increased efficiency in the tool production allows us to reduce the prices of tools which we sell in large quantities. Furthermore we could keep the prices of many other tools constant in spite the increased costs for carbide. Please ask us any question concerning our catalogues or tools, our friendly vhf team will be glad to help you. Frank Benzinger Manager
All prices exclude VAT, customs duties and transportation/packaging fees Deliveries are always subject to our Terms of Sale; we would be glad to send them to you on request and you will find them on the internet at www.vhf-camfacture.de All trade and product names mentioned in this catalogue belong to their owners Technical modifications and errors excepted February 2008.

Count on Carbide...
Due to its extraordinary features, tools made of carbide are far superior to those made of high speed steel (HSS). For high speed cutting, HSS tools can no longer be used. Thats why all tools in this catalogue are carbide tools either completely or partly. Most of our tools are solid carbide tools, the diamond tools consist of a carbide shank with an attached diamond and the router bits have carbide cutting edges. Carbide is an artificial product and consists mainly of the hard materials tungsten carbide and other finest grind powders. This mixture will be sintered under extreme pressure and high temperatures until it becomes a solid object. Therefore carbide cannot be compared to ferrous materials like steel. However, due to its extreme hardness and finest graining which ensure a long endurance and clear edges of cut, it is also more brittle and fragile than steel.
General Information
... or on Diamond!
Diamond is even much harder than carbide. Carbide tools with diamond attachment enable you to process even harder materials and have a multiple of the endurance of carbide tools. We use two sorts of diamonds mono crystalline and polycrystalline diamonds. Our monocrystalline diamonds correspond in their structure to natural diamonds although they have been produced artificially. They are excellent for polishing acrylic to a high gloss. Polycrystalline diamonds will be sintered from numerous unit crystals at high temperatures and pressures to a solid plate. This production process is comparable to that of carbide. Using these tools you can work on materials of all hardness grades. Despite their higher cost price, diamond tools are the more economic alternative for many processing tasks last but not least due to the possibility that they can be regrind for several times.

Gravers
Description: Gravers are conic tools (halved carbide rod) with one cutting edge. The deeper you dip into your workpiece, the broader becomes the engraving. The relationship between dipping depth and engraving width is determined by the top angle of the tool. A smaller top angle enables a more constant engraving width, even if the surface is not absolutely plane. We recommend our special 15 gravers for spindles without workpiece levelling. On request, we can also produce special designs. Instead of the shown conical flattened gravers, there are also cylindrical rounded gravers available. Additionally, we offer a regrinding service at a price of 6. per tool. Fields of Application: Optimal for plastics, non-ferrous metals and wood. Stop Ring: 3 mm gravers are equipped with a stop ring (white), distance from tool tip to back of ring: 21 mm; stop rings for 4 and 6 mm gravers can be found on page 41. Top angle from 15 on for constant engraving width

Box Gravers
Description: These special gravers with a top angle of 92 are very well suitable for bevelling. The material will be cut through nearly completely and bent up then. The oversize of 2 equals tolerances and offers space for glue. The name of the tool box graver results from this application: it can be used for producing boxes, or more generally, for cabinet making. We would be glad to manufacture on request also other special designs of gravers. For calculating the maximum material thickness which you can process with this tool, just subtract the engraving width (tip diameter of the graver) from the half cutting edge diameter. Fields of Application: Universal tools for plastics, wood and aluminium. Stop Ring: Appropriate stop rings can be found on page 41.

Deburring Tools
Description: Tools with a diameter of up to 8 mm have 4 cutting edges, tools with a diameter of 10 or more mm have 5 cutting edges. These tools always have a TiAlN special coating for a longer endurance and a top angle of 90 degrees. In contrast to conventional deburring tools, this type can also be used at high rotational speeds for deburring or chamfering all kinds of contours quickly. Especially when you use larger tool diameters with a high frequency spindle, it is recommended to use this special tool type due to its very little unbalance. The life of the spindle will be prolonged and your results will be improved. Fields of Application: This tool is optimally suited for deburring and chamfering plastics, non-ferrous metals and steel. Stop Ring: Appropriate stop rings can be found on page 41. No chance for burrs with this special tool

Router Bits
Router bits are mostly used for working on wood. However, due to their carbide cutting edges they are also very well suitable for working on other kinds of materials like plastics. The router bits are available in different versions for chamfering or bevelling and for milling slots, characters or radii. Right of the schematic drawing of each tool, you can see the form of the milled channel. Ask for an individual offer if you are interested in annual orders or single orders of larger quantities.

Practical Tips
You can use a diamond single tooth cutter when you want to process the materials listed under Fields of Application with a smaller cutting edge diameter. For technical reasons, it is not possible to equip tools with smaller cutting edge diameters with more than one cutting edge. Please take care that you re-adjust the rotational speed and the feed rate accordingly while processing these materials.

Special Features: Very long endurance and regrindable for several times. Stop Ring: Appropriate stop rings can be found on page 41. Polishes your acrylic edges and pockets to a high gloss
Practical Tips
You can polish your workpieces in several steps if a fine polishing step does not bother you. For instance you can polish your 10 mm thick material with a cutting edge length of 4 mm in three steps. So you do not have to use a polishing cutter with a cutting edge length of 10 mm which is much more expensive. To achieve best polishing results, do not remove more than 0.05 mm of the material per working cycle.

what material is the workpiece made of? type of coolant/lubricant power/maximum rotational speed of the spindle minimum/maximum feed rate of the CAM system stiffness of the machine.
As there is a large number of possible system configurations, these values can only serve as clues. They are maximum values which are calculated for optimum external circumstances for which we cannot assume liability due to the abovementioned numerous configuration possibilities. You should approach these values from the safe side, i. e. you should choose at first for most materials a lower lowering speed, dipping depth and feed rate but keep up the rotational speed. During the milling process, you can further optimise the results by carefully changing the parameters. If the calculated feed rate should be faster than your CAM system can actually move, you should set the maximum speed of your system as feed rate instead. However, you should reduce in this case the rotational speed of the spindle a little bit. The dipping depth depends on the power of your spindle, i. e. only if your spindle has a sufficient power reserve, you may actually set the maximum dipping depth. In case of doubt: It is better to remove in more steps less material than too much at once. If you are not sure about the correct dipping depth, you should also reduce the feed rate. Depending on the construction of the machine, you should observe the following rule of thumb: when using lightweight construction machines (e. g. vhf CAM 100CAM 2040), you should reduce the removal rate, when using heavy machine tools, you should rather reduce the feed rate. Please observe also the load display of the spindle controller, especially when you are working with bigger tool diameters on difficult to machine (hard) materials like stainless steel. It should not exceed a load of 80%, if possible. So you should approach the specified dipping depth only stepwise and watch always your spindle load.

If especially plastics should melt, the reason may be that the tool advances too slow and produces too much heat. Please reduce the rotational speed and increase the feed rate at the same time. If a milling cutter should become plugged, usually the chips have not been discharged quick enough. In such a case, the dipping depth and/or the feed rate have to be reduced. It may also help to use a different tool. Please note the hints on the number of cutting edges of milling cutters on page 42. When working on critical materials like extruded acrylic, milling cutters with polished flute have proven to be well suitable. Here the chips can hardly stick to the cutting edge. In case of a burr formation, you should increase the cooling. It could possibly become necessary to make also an additional finishing pass. If a tool breaks rather frequently, the removal rate is too high or the true running of the spindle is not exact enough. Please reduce in such a case the feed rate and/or the dipping depth and exchange the collet chuck for test reasons. If your material should not be listed, please classify it according to its machinability (hardness). When working on brass for instance, you should rather orient on the parameters of aluminium than on those of stainless steel, whereas when working on construction steel, you should rather orient on stainless steel than on aluminium. In case that your controller does not have a real look-ahead function (point-to-point or look-ahead of just one vector), you should stay below the calculated maximum feed rate, especially when performing fine engraving works. For instance, if you engrave small fonts which consist of numerous little vectors, the machine always has to accelerate and slow down strongly again. Even if the controller calculates one vector in advance (e. g. vhf CNC 450), it cannot accelerate in a curve to maximum speed because each next but one vector will be in the dark. You have a similar situation when you drive with your car in the fog, when you can only see from one guiding pole to the next. So an optimum velocity along the path (as is the case with CNC 550980) can only be achieved with limitations. The bearings of the machine and the tool will be exposed to strong forces due to the strong acceleration and brake applications. On top of that, the machine can overshoot due to the mass inertia. This effect becomes obvious in a bucking of the machine which leads to results that are worse on the whole. The speed advantage can be neglected. Please interrupt the output process as soon as the machine starts bucking and restart it at reduced speed. If a higher feed rate than your system permits would be possible according to tool and material data (please note also the abovementioned remarks concerning fine engraving works), you should reduce feed rate and rotational speed accordingly.

Cooling/Lubrication
For working on most kinds of materials it is necessary or at least recommended to cool the cutting edge of the tool with air or lubricant. This improves the surface quality and prolongs the endurance of the tool. If cooling is not possible, the recommended minimum values for rotational speed should be adhered to; the feed rate, however, should not be set too slow. In this case, the heat dissipation will be made by the chips, otherwise you will risk that the material scorches. Recommended coolants/lubricants: Plastics/Acrylic: dry processing with chip extraction or cooling with compressed air Aluminium: spray lubricant ALU-N or minimum quantity lubricant WST 20 Steel: emulsion of spray lubricant Emulgan-D and water (mixing ratio up to 1:10) or minimum quantity lubricant WST 20 Stainless steel V2A, V4A: spray lubricant EmulganD or minimum quantity lubricant WST 20
